A concise enantioselective synthesis of the guaiane sesquiterpene (−)-oxyphyllol
(−)-Oxyphyllol was prepared in only 4 steps from an epoxy enone that already served as an intermediate for the total synthesis of the anticancer guaiane (−)-englerin A.

Ferrocene-derived P,N ligands : synthesis and application in enantioselective catalysis [PDF]
Due to their unique steric and electronic properties, air-stability and modular structure, chiral hybrid P,N-ferrocenyl ligands play a prominent role in the field of asymmetric catalysis.

The synthesis of the 2,3-difluorobutan-1,4-diol diastereomers
The diastereoselective synthesis of fluorinated building blocks that contain chiral fluorine substituents is of interest. Here we describe optimisation efforts in the synthesis of anti-2,3-difluorobutane-1,4-diol, as well as the synthesis of the ...

Catalytic enantioselective synthesis of quaternary carbon stereocentres. [PDF]
Quaternary carbon stereocentres-carbon atoms to which four distinct carbon substituents are attached-are common features of molecules found in nature. However, before recent advances in chemical catalysis, there were few methods of constructing single ...

Preparation of 4 '-spirocyclobutyl nucleoside analogues as novel and versatile adenosine scaffolds
Despite the large variety of modified nucleosides that have been reported, the preparation of constrained 4 '-spirocyclic adenosine analogues has received very little attention.

Diastereoselectivity in Photochemistry
Diastereoselective photochemical reactions play an important role for asymmetric synthesis, for example for the synthesis of natural or biologically active compounds. Chirality is either induced by a chiral auxiliary or by a chiral centers already present in the substrates.

A highly diastereoselective cyclopropanation of cyclic enones with sulfur ylides was developed under catalyst-free conditions, producing multifunctional spirocyclopropanes in generally excellent yields (up to 99% yield and >99:1 d.r.).
